Parameter documentation


This value specifies the memory amount in bytes. When this amount is exceeded, a work process is restarted after completing a transaction step. In a work process, heap memory (malloc) can be allocated for a user context. If a user context releases this memory again, as the operating system sees it, the memory still remains occupied by the process, and is only available for other processes once the process itself has ended.
Aim Restart work processes as little as possible but avoid swap space bottlenecks.
